What do you think Troy Brouwer and Karl Alzer would cost the Oilers? I was also thinking of Martin Erat because he sort of has negative value, atleast he did barely getting minutes at the start of the year. Looking at our roster we don't have much to move aside the big guns...other than that we have a bunch of pending free agents.

I doubt Erat gets moved as the caps gave up a good prospect for him. As for the other 2, if the return help the caps plug a couple holes in their line-up, probably won't be too expensive

I think Marc Staal is too, but people are expecting him to join his bros in Carolina.
*Found that he's not a UFA until summer 2015, but he probably wouldn't sign here, so we'd be getting him for basically one year.

it seems like he'll get suspended for sneezing at this point. In that sense he's a waste....and he may antagonize the other team into some sort of blood frenzy...

the good news is he would be an upgrade in our bottom six and provides some injury depth there too. He can apparently PK which would be a boon. If he can at least pretend to turn his game around ala Matt Cooke...then its a win. If not, then at least the crazy SOB isn't playing AGAINST us.

I would really like B. Schenn on the Oilers, IMO, he's exactly who we need behind RNH as our #2 C.

I am not too big of a fan of trading our youth. I like Couts/schenn/Simmonds/Voracek. I think Hartnell would be a great fit in your top 6 though. You guys desperately wanted Clarkson, Hartnell is a better player than him. If you guys starting hitting the W column, it would make it easier for your GM to pull the trigger on a big trade. So let's pick it up Edmonton damn it, Flyers season is pretty much over lol.
